Additional Pain

I have met another person who has read the Bible and is not convinced of the gospel. I am not afraid. After all, it is the Holy Spirit who convicts in his time.

I just feel sad. Those people were so close to God, so close to knowing the best thing in the world. So close to have a chance with the One and Only True Living God.

Of course, I respect their decision. It's just sad. Non-believers read the Bible, and are still so blind in the world. Believers don't read the bible, are blind and believes that they can see.

It's a messed up world. And sadly, non-believers have to rely on logic and philosophy to replace what they cannot understand and what the Christian already knows in comfort. EG What's the meaning of Life? Why are we here? These are answers we, believers have. We are here because of God, for God. That's just it. Simple and sweet, no rationalizing to bitter the taste.

Some people are unable to comprehend the relationship we have with a God we cannot see.

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Heb 11:1

That's right. Faith cannot be rationalized in a way science can. It just is, and when the Holy Spirit convicts.
